I have been playing RO for ages, from low-super high, and renewal--prerenewal. So far the one that strikes me the most is low+renewal. It seems that such servers are the most friendliest & promising...imo. Well, on to the review!  /ho

Played here for only a few weeks, long enough to convince me that the server is heading in a positive direction. I was even motivated to write this review due to the *awesomeness* I felt XD

K, as expected of a low-rate renewal server, it has rebellion, the new 3rd job skills, Para market, nightmare clock tower, new cards, bio4, Malaya, woe te, time boots update, eclage etc. I was kinda surprised that they listed paramarket as one of their features on RMS, since it is a recent kRo content. Kinda shows they strive to update the servers content, I guess? One of the reasons I decided to download the game.

My experience here was enjoyable. Levelling wasn't mundane since quests rewarded decent exp, and quests are fun to do! Exploring the RO lore has never been boring. Weekly maintenance bring about some degree on anxiety since I'm looking forward to what they'll implement next.

Customization and donation is quite balanced, since whatever you can obtain via donation, you can obtain via events/voting. One good thing is they DO NOT have big rainbow coloured wings from fantasy animes. A big no-no from me.

So far there isn't major issues or bugs. Bug-fixing by the GMs are quite efficient. Minimal to no lag experienced. Only time server is down is during the weekly maintenance, which usually taker 30 minutes to 1hour. Then the fun starts.... new stuff! /gg

It seems players come from various time zones, so its hard to see many people online at a time. Though, I've seen first hand that the community is friendly, and I'm positive that the trend will continue :)

As of events, it seems the server has been running festive events since it first launched. From mid-autumn to Oktoberfest, with Halloween kinda expected soon. Automated events are unique and interesting. Weekends when Seika is online, there will be Seika-events such as town invasions.

Seika, the admin seems to be dedicated to the future of the server. She handles suggestions well and responds in a friendly manner. Not sure if she's the one doing the planning, but it seems the weekly updates are quite satisfying! -at least for me.

Economy, Guild Competition and Class Balance isn't on par yet- since it's still new. But so what? It's bound to grow when players come in.

Overall, I think exRO is a good low-rate renewal server which stays true to it's Korean origins... but with sprinkles of custom stuff here and there, it brings about a unique experience....... or maybe its just me being elated playing here. Only thing that needs improvement is it's limited player base of 10 people or so. But that is normal for a newly opened server, isn't it?

My score: 7.5/10. Missing 2.5 points due to not having a steady player base yet. Otherwise, i'd say this is one of the best RO servers out there.
